Food scene
Great Greek seafood!
Gotta try the grilled octopus, peasant salad, grilled fish and broiled scallops. The lemon potatoes are super yummy.
Fast paced
No reservations, plan to wait an hour for a table on a busy night but you can put your name in and they’ll call you when your table is ready and go have a drink at the bar next door
